That's a pretty cool image, but I wouldn't want them to call it Bizzaro Escape. SE suits because superman is helping you escape the train line which is collapsing from the earthquake. Bizzaro's Revenge is my pick. I don't want them to take what they did with SE in regards to the symbol, name etc, because SE is its own ride and is awesome. So this ride should be its own and just as awesome.

just taken

It is likey given that the whole ride would need more than the track already delivered.

Four new shipping containers have arrived on site this morning (Photo: TPSN)

Hey having the option of riding backwards on the same car is really cool!

Swamp. This can only be one thing. Are you thinking what I'm thinking @Zanstabar?? SOME...BODY!!!!

I also doubt it will be based on a villain, I don't really care what they call it, just can't wait to ride it!

Construction fencing first appeared back in early July. Permanent fencing materials arrived mid August. Land clearing began soon after this. Mack crates arrived beginning of September, and footing construction began soon after. With them completed early december. Opening date announced mid December. And the permanent fence began construction early January.

Extend Motocoaster so it goes up the tower?

Its because Bizzaro is the clone of superman, but evil (kind of). Bizzaro was a creation in Lex Luthor's lab so Lex could finally defeat superman with a creature of mirrored capabilities. But Bizzaro lacks intellect. So you have the great, famous, Superman Escape and the Bizzaro ride to oppose it. (yes, he's purple in the image. But thats because he is actually purple, MW did the wrong colours on the toys and his statue. However, like all comics, everything is up for adaption and interpretation) Yeah, I love this. And I think they will. Like they really should, and if they don't, its a missed opportunity. But to add: What about the Superman Escape & Bizzaro Escape Like have the same symbol, but swap the S backwards (like Bizzaro has) and change the name. To show the similar differences. And the "ride story" is that Lex accidentally lets Bizzaro (you) loose and you reign havoc Its really dumb, and would be terrible to market because people would just think that they changed the name and colours. But its one of many ideas to fly out of my head as of yet.

Paradise Country Review Park visited: 2 April 2017 Nestled in the bushland out the back of Warner Bros. Movie World, Paradise Country is a park seldom visited by theme park enthusiasts. We ventured out there today to see what keeps this park in business. It is of course the international tourists. And there were so many tourists. So, so many tourists. Ok, maybe I’m exaggerating a bit there, but there was a decent amount. This isn’t the park you would visit to get your fix of thrill rides or superheroes. You won’t find Green Lantern battling Parallax, Batman versing The Joker, or Catwoman taking out Arkham security. What you will find is plenty of Koalas (maybe a few too many Koalas for my liking) and cute little farm animals freely roaming around their enclosures, waiting for the next handful of food from passing visitors. I'll admit. I've been a theme park fan for years and have always avoided Paradise Country because I figured it was geared too much towards foreign tourists. I'm happy to admit that I was pleasantly surprised to find that families and local tourists can also have a great day out there. It's a laid back atmosphere and with all the trees and quietness that usually only comes from being in an isolated location, it’s incredibly easy to forget that you're only metres from the rear of Movie World's Wild West Falls, and not too far from the houses on the other side of kopps road. When you stop and think about it, Village sure does own a huge amount of land. Just look at all the possible coasters you could fit in here. So yes, the walk from the car park to the main entry may be a little long for some people's liking, and I would tend to agree if it was either hot or wet weather, but it's a nice stroll on a cloudy and cooler day. Just on the car park though, after making the speed-bump laden journey from the highway, via the rear of Australian Outback Spectacular, you’re greeted with one of the most poorly laid out car parks I’ve come across. You’d be forgiven for thinking it was designed by the team behind Westfield shopping centre car parks. I’d suggest if you do make the trip to Paradise Country, skip the first car park and head straight for the additional parking area. Whilst not bitumen, it’s a gravel car park with a much better layout. The park itself is in pretty good nick. They’re lucky in a sense that any dirt, spiderwebs, or hornets nest etc just help add to the “outback” theme. Upon entering the homestead, you’re presented with a very easily avoidable ticket purchasing counter. Note: I do not condone bypassing this and getting in without paying, or scanning your VRTP membership card, I’m just quite surprised at how easy it would be to just walk on by without purchasing a ticket. All that's stopping you is your ethics. You could pay for a ticket, or you could just wander on in like you already had one and would probably be easily missed. Especially in the current climate, I'd hate to think there's guests who would do that instead of supporting our parks, but I'm just really shocked that the park hasn't done anything to prevent this. Maybe it's not as much of an issue as it seems? The animal walkthough could really just be called a Kangaroo and Koala, and Koala, and Koala walkthough (maybe I wasn’t exaggerating about the number of Koalas earlier). With all the Koalas to look at, this sure keeps a certain group of international tourists occupied for a while. The nursery however is where the fun really begins. Now obviously everyone is going to have a different opinion on what fun is, however, while I’ve grown up in the city all my life, I love farm animals and animals in general, so it’s a nice change of pace from the thrills on offer next door. Free feed bins are located within the nursery and the animals know exactly who’s holding a tasty handful. There’s plenty of entertainment value in just watching the Goats almost knocking over visitors to get the food. Side note for parents of younger children - the Goats can and will make attempts to jump up and knock you over to get at the feed you’re holding. Now go back and read that last paragraph again. Especially the first couple of words. Or even just the first word.... That's not a typo. Paradise Country provides free food for guests to hand out to the animals. FREE. Not $5-10 per cup. No additional purchase required. This isn't some animal upcharge like you might find at a certain Gold Coast marine park, and you don’t need to buy a fancy wristband to open the food box. This is free food that adults and kids can enjoy handing out to the animals who are always more than willing to accept it. Who doesn't love free stuff? Not only can you walk through the enclosure with the Goats and Sheep, but inside the nursery you’ll find Chickens, Cows, Piglets, Guinea Pigs and Alpacas all within arms reach. It’s certainly entertaining for all ages. While geared more towards kids, there’s also the options of opal mining and gemstone panning to take part in. The lunch options aren’t too bad, and they’re priced exactly as expected for theme park food. The buffet will set you back just under twenty bucks. The eating area provided a nice spot to sit and relax after walking around the park. On a Sunday you'll find local musicians playing in the dining area which adds a nice atmosphere and isn't overly loud like you might find at a pub. Well priced food, a comfortable dining area and free music. What's not to love? Along with the endless Koalas, the tourists and locals alike are also treated to the traditional outback experience of a sheep shearing demonstration and brief intro to a few different breeds of sheep. And what would a show be without some audience participation? I must give Village credit for this. Both this show and the Hollywood Stunt Driver show at Movie World have managed to include some form of audience participation without making it horribly cringe worthy. The show is certainly worth a look, even if it is just to fill in time in your day. There is a stock horse show, and a sheepdog demonstration along with a Lorikeet feeding. All of these make for great photos. Or at least I can confirm the Lorikeet feeding does as I missed the other shows. They are certainly something I will make the trip back for at a later date. You could spend a full day at Paradise Country if you enjoy all the shows and walk around at a leisurely pace. Taking into account the target market (international tourists) and the fact they’ve managed to provide a full day visit with a fairly small number of attractions, I’d have to give Paradise Country a solid 6.5 out of 10. Pros: Good shows Great for families and tourists Decently priced food Animals of course Cons: It could use a little more variety in the animals they have on display The carpark is a bit of a walk from the entry The carpark itself could have been better designed The translation service played over the PA during the Sheep Shearing show was painful. Some guests were wearing headsets with what I assume would be other languages being played to them, so why not do the same for more languages on a different radio channel instead of breaking the flow of the show by pausing every couple of sentences.

It was taken towards where the Lethal Weapon alley is/was between the bakery and the bank.

they're speed pipes they make the coaster go faster

So no columns installed, but first roof is, but along with 3 new contains is all this piping and sheeting.

Forgot to mention you can usually get good deals buying tickets in park, particular on day of so maybe check those options out when next at movie world or sea world.

Everyone knows it's not about the measurements, it's the performance that matters.

My son got this Lex Luthor toy today. Seems like it's pretty similar colours to the track.

For people trying to put the pieces together this might help you to locate the pieces on track. The centre support in the loading station is support number 1 labeled K001 (The track count and support count both start from the middle of the station. The last footing is support is K193 The track and support count goes clockwise. The same direction the ride will run. The current supports on site are around: K073 Also the K supports are not for the maintenance bay. If you are trying to work out the track location you will have to do the math yourself but my thinking is each container is 12m long so each track section is between 10m - 12m approx. Don't forget to add to the track required each time the track goes up or down. To go with the track info in green/blue you can see the centre of the track start on 0m and ends on 1365m the support before. I don't know if this it the track length or the length on ground.

More walls have gone up now, as well as what will clearly be tiger observational areas ☺️

Yeah we don't really need criticism or comments about other people's entries. You could submit your own entry if you think you can do better?

Hey dude - a bit of respect would be nice! It might not have been as detailed as some of the others we've seen but he at least gave an attempt...

Marvel character but isn't owned by Disney. Owned by Fox currently. Also, still not going to happen. Although hes my favourite.

Holy crap are you still going on about that? When I Visited it wa Southside the que so just because it wasn't busy ( probably because it was horrible weather ) Dosent mean I'm lying, Jesus Christ I'm sick of people holding stuff against other people it's tiring

Nah, I'll pass on the seminar thanks. I agree $100 isn't outrageous but for 5, expensive night out! I'll just pick a night when wifey and I can go. Kids can have baked beans and netflix.
